I have purchased a Sh2 type corn and an Indian type ornamental field corn to plant this season. My garden is approx. 50x50. Can I plant the sweet corn with the Indian corn? |
It's not a good idea to plant different varieties of corn near each other. Corn is wind-pollinated and pollen from one plant will affect the characteristics of the other. If possible, plant each variety in a block of its own at different ends of the garden to keep the pollen from traveling from one stand of corn to the other. |
